Join us for a fantastic chance to try out an all-terrain wheelchair on this autumn guided walk above the village of Sabden.
All-terrain wheelchairs are specially designed electric buggies, which can be used on country tracks, uneven ground, mud and grass. They can help people who have difficulty walking, or who may be less mobile, to experience the countryside and to accompany friends and family in the great outdoors.
At around 1 ½ miles long, our route will take us on a gradual climb from St. Nicholas' Church to the edge of Churn Clough Reservoir and back - with plenty of opportunity to take in the views around famous Pendle Hill and even, on a clear day, Darwen Tower away to the south-west.
It's a great opportunity to try out an all-terrain wheelchair, get used to the controls and see what they can do. There are several guided session times to choose from (9.30am, 11.30am and 1.30pm) and first-time all-terrain wheelchair users will receive an induction before we set off.
Accompanying family and friends are very welcome too, of course!
The walk costs £5 per person and places can be booked by clicking on this link: LCC Events
Sabden is part of the Forest of Bowland National Landscape's all-terrain wheelchair hub network. If you'd like to find out a little more about this particular route, do take a look at our short YouTube video here: Sabden ATW Hub film.
